If there is a statistic you want to correct please suggest one. That said, the blatant misrepresentation of the US system as one where everyone is going bankrupt despite having health insurance makes me pretty grumpy too.

5 Year survival rates are a useless metric that don't say anything about patient harm from over-testing and over-treatment, or anything about all cause mortality. The US does better at 5 year survival rates because it's happy to cause harm to patients for no benefit.

You keep saying "The UK"[1] NHS denies treatment to patients, but you can't ever say what treatment is denied, instead pointing to stuff that's readily available. (Which is surprising, because if you actually cared about the truth you'd easily find examples of care that isn't available.)

I've never seen a post by you about the English NHS which isn't wrong. Doesn't it worry you that every single post you make about the English NSH is wrong?

[1] There isn't one NHS. There are 4 separate systems, controlled by different governments.

Rayiner’s posts tend to be some of the more interesting and well thought out posts I see on HN.

I don’t always agree with his:her conclusions and I’m sure sometimes he/she is wrong, but the content is generally better than 95% of posts on HN.

Yes, most of the posts are very good.

But he consistently misrepresents information about healthcare in other countries.

Of the two of you, Dan, you're the one who hasn't posted any source data.
